IAF does extensive recruitment every year to put the best of young talent and spirit in service to the nation. However extensive their recruitment is, IAF does not compromise or settle for less. Getting inducted as an Officer in the IAF is not an easy task. The IAF was here at LPU as a part of its IAF induction publicity programme to encourage the students join it.
The motive of the visit was to spread awareness about career opportunities and growth in the IAF. The personnels guided the students about the different ways how they can get into the IAF. Personnels from the IAF brought along an IPEV(Induction Publicity Exhibition Vehicle). The IPEV showcased all career related aspects, life and training of IAF, its assets, flying simulation and experience of various other IAF activities. For this, many officers from the Air Head Quarters of the Indian Air Force, New Delhi, had specially visited LPU campus, where 5000+ students understood the enchanting endeavours of IAF.
During ‘Seminar on Job Avenues in IAF, Wing Commander Sangeeta Kathait apprised students that IAF wishes to provide them opportunity to serve in IAF.
